2015-09-25
The Storage of soybeans should be determined by local climate and soybean quality. Soybean moisture and storage temperature should maintain safety range .Choosing suitable drying, cleaning and ventilation measurements, if there are pest, chemical control or fumigation treatment should be adopted.
1.The first month after putting the soybean inside storage silo, soybean should storage at drying, well ventilated environment.
2.From November to February, in stages ventilation cooling is the good way. To prevent material become moisture, avoiding ventilation during rainy day, snowing day or humidity environment.
3.During high temperature in summer, the low temperature soybean heap should be carefully monitored. When the silo temperature and humidity is too high, ventilator is adopted for ventilation during night and early morning as the humidity is relatively low. In the meanwhile, pay attention to the temperature of soybean heap ( soybean surface within 2mm ) and silo wall ( within silo wall 1.5mm) , partial ventilation should be performed when partial high temperature or similar situation happens.
